Union Military Strategy 1864 - Outline
Thesis statement: During the civil war, the battles that were fought both in the eastern, as well
as the Western Theater, were important in winning the war. The western areas, for instance, were
necessary for the Confederacy because of the plenty of human resources that were available as
well as the agricultural potential of the place. The eastern areas were, however, important on the
other hand because of the ports and the prowess of General Lee who was in charge of the
Confederate army. Therefore, plans for both theaters were made in the early parts of the war.
